The Way We Organize Our Run Game
We work on different runs each day of the Week. Monday – Inside Zone and Outside Zone Tuesday – Gap schemes Power/Counter Wednesday – QB Sweep/Lead Option and
any other runs that we have not worked on for the week.
Thursday – Review
Why the Power and Counter ?
Looking for a way to attack defenses down hill from the Spread Offense. It builds power into our Offense. Be Physical!!!
Great Play Action possibilities! Let Defenses know that we will use 2 backs
and come at you. Set up a lot of options off of it. It makes defenses keep people in the box.
Counter and Power
If you play to stop the power you give us the Counter but both of them use a gap scheme
We run power option when the DE is wrong arming or really crashing hard on the back.
We try to keep things simple for Linemen ( Zone, Gap, Lead Option) and then Pass and Screen Blocking
Power Blocking Rules
PST -- B gap to #2 backer PSG – A gap to #2 backer C – Block Back BSG – Pull for Front side LB ( keep shoulders
square towards LOS ) BST – Step and Hinge ( no run throughs in B
gap!!! ) H back – block C gap
RB Alignment and Assignments F is 7 yards deep with his inside foot on the
outside foot of guard ; takes off hugging double team ; square shoulder entry is a must!
H is an arm length off OT; H’s outside foot is aligned on the OT’s Inside foot; H has C Gap not a man!!
H’s blocking assignment discussed later vs. field blitz call

What Coaching means to me
Coaching to me is a Mission Field that God has put me in. I hope and want to make a difference in each person’s life I touch.
A person does not care how much you know until you show them how much you care!
Develop a Philosophy of why you coach and work at that each day.
Galatians (6:9) “Let us not grow weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.
The Builder
I saw a group of men in my hometown
I saw a group of men tearing a building down,
With a heave and a ho and a mighty yell,
They swung a beam and the sidewalk fell.
And I said to the foreman, “Are these men skilled,
The type you’d hire if you wanted to build?”
And he laughed and said, “Why, no indeed,”
He said, “Common labor’s all I need,
For I can tear down in a day or two
What it took a builder ten years to do.”
And I thought to myself as I walked away,
“Which of these roles am I going to play?
Am I the type that constantly tears down
As I make my way, foolishly around?
Or am I the type that’s trying to build with care,
In hopes that my organization’ll be glad I was there?”
